i’ve been working on the apartment a lot recently. i started before vacation, rearranging furniture. the living room is my focus at the moment. since we got back from toronto and niagara falls, i’ve been working on finishing up the place. there’s still plenty to do, but i moved our books (the living room books. there’s more elsewhere, of course) into the built in bookcase, and i’m really pleased with the result!
here’s the before, with all of our cds, and random stuffs just chilling, probably because it’s the most convenient place:
(i didn’t actually remember to take a before picture, so this was grabbed from the background of another picture. sorry about the fuzziness)
and after:
other than covering the two shoe boxes that are stacked on the magazines holders (primarily comics and knitting magazines!), this is done for the moment! hurrah! i was amazed at how much it helped the rest of the room, too.
this rearranging/decorating phase i’m going through? entirely young house love‘s fault. i super duper love that blog. and oh, let’s face it, apartment therapy can share the blame a little bit
there’s knitting that has been happening, and knitting that will be happening. i took stock of where i am in terms of holiday gift knitting, and i’m doing okay, but i still know i’m not going to finish everything i have planned. so i gotta start prioritizing.
